Judging by the size and weight of the 803a gen head, I feel it should pull 14kw the way it is. Before swapping heads I would just put 15kw on it and measure the gen head heat, I am curious what the unit will actually handle myself...

I put a 24kw chinese head from georgia generator on the 400hz version of the 004. I have burned up 2 of these heads, one was because I mounted it solid instead of through a lovejoy(beat the bearing out) and the other because I ran it overloaded in hot weather. It surprised me how long even a...

Does anyone know the part number off the 802a and 803a's Current Transformer? I dug through TM-9-6115-642-24P, but could not find it, it was pictured, but not listed, only it's screws...

Just to confirm, I'm suppose to have 4 turns around the Current transformers correct?

I forgot about that port! I read in the TM they don't want you to put more than a 90* turn in the exhaust, that is kinda limiting...

I have thought about just using the engine's waterpump, routing through copper tubing wrapped around the exhaust, but I'm afraid it may not flow enough.

This isn't an mep, and he isn't recovering the heat, but he could easily route the "raw waterpump" to pump it from the engine's heat exchanger into your house. He also mentions water being injected into the exhaust , so even the exhaust gas heat is recovered. The great thing about it is the...

How many hours on that engine? I have always avoided trying to rebuild pumps and injectors myself, if it were me , I would try cleaning the pump out best I could(does it have an inspection plate?) I have cleaned injectors by soaking in gas, and polishing the tip with a pine dowel soaked in...

Check for power to the shutoff solenoid, if it has power to it, I bet that's it.

I just re read your post and see you have oil to your IP, will it run in battle short?

I have a 004, so I may not be much help. If youre not throwing any indicator lights, I would suspect the fuel shutoff solenoid. I would run it in battle short for a few minutes(assuming you are sure you have oil pressure) and that will tell you if fuel is actually making it to the pump. My 004...

I see, gonna have to keep a spare pump around. Well it would still fill your set tank, keeping you from having to carry diesel should the auxiliary pump go down, but youre sol should the main pump fail, unless you swap the main with aux, theyre the same pump i assume?

I have used Bio Kleen, I have also used gasoline when desperate to clean the tanks out. The biggest thing is to watch where you get you fuel from and keep it dry, once you start plugging filters, it's like it never stops, even when you get fresh fuel it's like it stirs up the mess in the bottom...

If it is higher than the tank(on my 004) you do not need the fuel pump, it gravity feeds when the solenoid opens. It just keeps you running when a pump goes down, which has happened to me, when I needed the set most of course.

You only need one line, keep the tank higher than your genset fueltank, and remember to place the switch in aux/run position. Lowes or your local hose house will have the fitting you need, Napa with have the fuel line.

Well, it still trips the breaker and lights the overload lamp. I flipped the battle short and ran it a few hours with 11kw on it, ran great and started running cleaner. I guess I need to test the overload/short circuit relay now...

Does gmg sell the metal shaft version, or where can I find one?

Well, I managed to get the switch in the correct position with the nub that was left and tested the AM/VM. It is reading correct, so I'm going to try and reinstall it, hopefully it will pull full load now...

I took some time today and tested the current transformers, had continuity on each, so they are good. I then desoldered and tested the burden resistors and they all had 7.5-7.8 ohms, so theyre good. I looked up the S6 circuit schedule in the TM, so I could ohm test the AM/VM, and just my...

According to the TM, if I read it correctly, you Do Not have to desolder the burden resistors to test them.
